Flexural Properties of Vetiver Fiber Reinforced Polyethylene Composite are Affected by Processing Parameters
Abstract: Fiber reinforced polymer composites have long been influential in a variety of applications due to their great particular strength and modulus. Vetiver fiber (VF)/thermoplastic composites are an alternative material for solving the environmental pollution problem related to synthetic polymers. The benefits of natural fibers (such as coir, jute, vetiver, calotropis gigantea, flax, hemp, kenaf, etc.) over traditional reinforcing fibers (glass and carbon fiber) are their easy obtainability, renewability, non-corrosive nature, …

Analytical Study on Automobile Engine Line Work Stations and Analyze Their Working
Abstract: In an automobile assembly line, a series of stations are arranged along a conveyor belt and an automated guided vehicle performs on tasks at each station. Parallel assembly lines can provide improving line balance, productivity and so on. Combining robotic and parallel assembly lines ensure increasing flexibility of system, capacity and decreasing breakdown sensitivity. Although afore mentioned benefits, balancing of robotic parallel assembly lines is lacking – to the best …

FE Modelling and Analysis of Mixed Mode Delamination in Composite Laminates
Abstract: A composite is a structural material that consists of two or more constituents combined at a macroscopic level and not soluble in each other. The advantages of composites over conventional materials are its light weight, high strength, design flexibility, dimensional stability, etc. Although Composite materials are advantageous than conventional materials, there are some defects in composite materials too, which are Fibre-matrix debonding, fibre misalignment, Delamination, Matrix cracking, Impact damage, etc. …
